Al-Subkî known simply as Ibn al-Subki was a leading Islamic scholar, a faqih, a mu?addith and a historian from the celebrated al-Subki family of Shâfi'î 'ulamâ, during the Mamluk era. Tâj al-Dîn al-Subkî was born and educated in Cairo, Egypt, in 1327 (727 AH). He was first educated by his father, the celebrated scholar Taqî al-Dîn al-Subkî. At age 11 years he joined his father in Damascus, where he studied under the leading scholars of his day, such as the historian al-Dhahabi and the jurist Ibn al-Naqîb. Aged 18 he became a mudarris (professor) and kha?ib at the Umayyad Mosque. In his late twenties he began to assist his father as qa?i (Chief judge) of Syria, and on his father's retirement to Cairo in 1354, he replaced him as qa?i of Damascus. He also held the title Mufti In 1357 he was removed from office but reinstated several months later. In 1368 he was jailed for misappropriation of funds. Following a petition by friends, he was released after 80 days and seems to have been exonerated. He died of the plague in 1370 (771 AH) aged 44 years. Mu'îdü'n-Ni'âm "i.e. The restorer of favours and the restrainer of chastisements", treats 113 trades, professions and offices of the author's own time, in the light of how their exponents should behave in order to recover God's favour.
